COMMENTARY: Today, 76% of nursing homes residents in West Virginia are covered by Medicaid: That’s over 49,000 residents in just one state. Medicare beneficiaries rely on Medicaid for assistance with services not covered by Medicare, particularly long term care, writes Ellen Allen.

Undocumented immigrants paid an effective federal income tax rate of 5.27% in 2022.
That means they paid a higher effective tax rate than 5 of the richest Americans…and a higher effective tax rate than 55 mega corporations.

A text to me yesterday re the wipeout of NIOSH in Morgantown, WV:
"Almost all of NIOSH Morgantown is gone now. There are just a few still in waiting. No work can be done -- no one left and the entire NIOSH OD gone. Our directors, it's awful.
